Abstract

The invention discloses a method for preparing electrochromic liquid crystal microcapsules for textiles, belonging to the technical fields of fine chemical industry and material science. The electrochromic liquid crystal microcapsules prepared by this method not only have bright and changeable colors, but also can meet people's requirements for clothing individuation and diversity; they also have good solvent resistance and water resistance, uniform particle size, high core material loading, and drive The voltage is low, and the original color performance can still be maintained after textile processing. And when applied, the shell structure of the liquid crystal microcapsule can not only protect the liquid crystal, but also participate in film formation, which is more suitable for the requirements of textiles.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for preparing electrochromic liquid crystal microcapsules for textiles, belonging to the technical fields of fine chemical industry and material science. Background technique [0002] Nematic liquid crystals have considerable fluidity, and changes in the external field will cause fluctuations in the orientation of nematic molecules. This fluctuation modulates the material's refractive index microscopically and leads to strong light scattering. The nematic liquid crystal host material is doped with some dichroic dyes (this dye changes the absorption spectrum due to the change of molecular direction, and has light absorption anisotropy) to form a pair of guest-host materials. Generally speaking, the director of the dichroic dye in the liquid crystal environment is consistent with the director of the liquid crystal. Therefore, the nematic liquid crystal doped with a dichroic dye is in a colored state when the circuit is...
